Southern Rolling Road Meet Picture Thread, 29th June

[samass]

Twas a good meet, with some good results, stick what photos and videos you have up in here guys, I don't i have any lol

[Anton]

You guys are all rubbish lol. Someone start a list with what BHP and LBFT they made.

[Matt]

Cleaning sams epic oil spill





Epic spill





Straight through scoring



Muscle madness



Coaling Hindhead on the way there

Who's '6 was that rolled 160?

[samass]

So, a list then:

Samass - 133.5bhp, 190lbft (ish)
Ginge - 154bhp
Fooby - 160bhp
Max - 190bhp

I forget who else rolled, so someone else can edit the list accordingly, people can also fiddle their numbers cuz i dont know them for sure.

Anyway, here's the not so nad's graph

   

Ignoring the power figure as my rpm was only estimated, but i think the torque figure should be pretty much spot on.


f*cking chuffed

Mate that's epic!! Need to turbo mine now!

How's engine taking the abuse? What psi was you at? Also what clutch you running? Wanna look round it at pugfest/fcs lol if you will let me

[strictly_perv]

Here's some of mine so far uploaded-





Samass cleaning up the oil leaks

And then pop goes the head

...

[samass]

Lol cheers for that! She sure is a little beast lol

I'm having a few "thermal management" issues hehe, and an oil containment problem or ten

It pegs a 20psi gauge, probably in the region of 40psi...welded waste gate not such a good idea, its destroyed my turbo haha and blows hot air down the inlet lolz

Standard clutch (f*cked) Which slips like a bastard when it's hot

Haha feel free man! Taking it up the hill too

Judging by what your saying there would be more to be had??

Carnt get over that result tbh was expecting 100 max

Think I'm gonna go down the turbo route instead of d turbo conversion

[samass]

Oh yeah for sure, the engine is f*cked, the turbo is blowing hot air, oil temps are thru the roof, the engine is totally standard bar the turbo and a few necessary add ons. Lots more to be had

[Poodle]

Matt, sort your vids out dude. Some good results there though, if possibly a bit optimistic. Was Fooby the only one with a working tacho lol?

[samass]

Pretty much Alex lol

There was a 106 xsi that had one i think...

[Poodle]

Ah that's a pity, be nice to find a dyno that's willing to do it properly one of these days. Not that it's a problem for me, just seems a shame for you guys without to have to put up with half a job.

Meant to ask how they were as rolling roads go, worth using again you reckon?

[ginge191]

Matt, sort your vids out dude. Some good results there though, if possibly a bit optimistic. Was Fooby the only one with a working tacho lol?

This.

[samass]

They were a lot better than ray west, the guys were pretty sound, pretty chilled. I'd use them again, maybe more for a 'proper' run as opposed to a shoot out, but I'd be happy organising another day there if there was interest.

I know people will have issues or whatever with the accuracy of the results, but st the end of the day, if you're guessing the revs, what can you expect lol. I don't out that down to the fault of the operator, i feel they did fair enough.

[Matt]

What's wrong with my vids? Ill upload to YouTube at some point

[Poodle]

Um, well as i understand videos they're meant to be like moving pictures, whereas yours look like this - [image: E45236HVF-345HG-blahblah...4557] - and don't move at all. :p

Oh yeah, absolutely, and i don't want to drag that argument in here. I would have thought they'd have a tachometer somewhere on site though, they're not exactly expensive... Besides, it's not as if that'll be an uncommon problem at RR meets for this forum, i reckon it could be a fairly important consideration for future.

[Matt]

Oh right lol, I'll see what I can do haha

[samass]

Yep exactly. The guys there are pretty reasonable tho, and while they weren't massive fans of the diesels cuz of the smoke lol they might well be willing to accommodate something in the future

[Fooby]

and your nad leaving most of its oil on their dyno. Most companies would have been like GTFO

[Poodle]

Hahaha yeah I did notice the lack of proper extraction.

[samass]

The extraction wasn't too bad, ideally they should have a pipe right off the exhaust, but the fact that they had to keep the doors shut because of the sites noise limits and stuff meant it was hard for the system to cope

[Dum-Dum]

Glad to see someone else mopping up fluids at a rr day for a change.

Do any of you have any idea how far out the rpm might be compared to where your peak power feels on the road and cars with the same box and a working speedo/tacho.

[ginge191]

Look at the dyno graph and the point the gov kicks and drops.
It seems fairly spot on..

[samass]

Hard to say, it'll have been different for each car obviously, but i cant really guess at what mine would be

[strictly_perv]

The tacho on my car is fully working. And power and rpm feels spot on when driving it.

[ozonehostile]

190bhp from max???? amazing result
